N21591   Cessna C172 SP White/Blue   2004 Still the most popular aircraft ever built, the new Cessna Skyhawk has been newly redesigned to take advantage of some of the most advanced aviation technology available. The result is an unprecedented blend of luxury, performance, value, and style. Extra comfort, styling, and power with the same legendary reliability, value, and forgiving handling of a skyhawk. However you look at it, Skyhawk SP is sure to suit your style. The Skyhawk SP is a joy to fly. Simple, foolproof engineering makes service headaches virtually disappear. Well-designed, beefy systems are practically indestructible. And corrosion-proofed components will last as long as you want to fly. Which, in a Skyhawk SP, is going to be a long time. Already the safest single-engine piston aircraft in the world, as reported by the AOPA Air Safety Foundation, the new Skyhawk is equipped with dynamically tested 26g seats; inertia reel shoulder harnesses for all seats; a carburetor ice-free, fuel-injected engine; and a dual vacuum pump system. The Skyhawk clearly sets new standards of safety. Specifications Information below is not intended for flight planning purposes or aircraft operation.
